Connie Briscoe Bestselling author, inspirational speaker. "A frank and funny tale about the everyday lives of three Black women." Essence magazine Big Girls Don't Cry "Brims with warmth, energy, and a positive message." San Francisco Chronicle A Long Way From Home "Briscoe's novel is a historical romance that falls somewhere between Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God and Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind." The Washington Post "There are a lot of things about slavery we don't know because we're afraid to look back. I hope with this novel people will see more than a one-dimensional picture." Connie Briscoe was not afraid to look. While researching her family history for her third and most daring novel, A Long Way Home , she waded through old family Bibles, letters, photos and documents in libraries and archives. She discovered that much of her ancestral history - she is descended from house slaves on the plantation of President James Madison and his wife, Dolley - was lost, destroyed or records were badly kept. It was common for slaves not to know their birth date or even the names of both parents. This genealogical adventure required persistence, a trait Connie has in abundance. Born with a mild hearing loss from a genetic abnormality, she lost most of her hearing by her late 20's and communicates by reading lips and using American Sign Language.

Connie Briscoe Biography In Her Own Words. . . I was born in Washington, DC, on New Year's Eve, 1952. A younger sister followed about twenty-two months later. I had a happy, normal childhood in every way. Although shy and quiet in my early years, I began to get a little rebellious in my teens - but nothing far out of the ordinary." The only thing unusual about my life was that I was born with a hearing loss, inherited from my father's side of the family. From childhood through my twenties, it was a moderate loss, and I was able to attend public schools (where I took lip-reading lessons) and go on to college with few problems. In my mid-twenties the loss worsened and, by graduate school, I needed a hearing aid. When I was in my thirties my hearing really deteriorated and I took a job at Gallaudet University and began to learn sign language. I've never let it hold me back from doing the things I wanted to do. I just adapt and go on. I'm not sure when I first thought about being a writer. I've always had "a way with words" and took a few stabs at writing a novel when I was in my twenties, but I never finished - perhaps because I did not have enough life experience to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion at the time. I put it off and pursued other things - a brief first marriage, my career, traveling around the world, photography - but the desire to write was always in the background. And although my career as an editor was progressing fairly well, I realized it wasn't what I wanted to do the rest of my life. So I took another stab at writing.

Emily Listfield Review from Quarterly Black Review of Books, may/june 1996: "A sweeping, modern-day fairy tale minus the wicked stepmother...Briscoe adroitly weaves Naomi's coming-of-age story and her search for true love with subplots that show the impact of the Civil Rights Movement; the struggles of women and blacks to crack corporate America's glass ceiling; and the melodrama of middle-class black families dealing with illegitimacy, painful losses, and other traumas."
